Festival Wear

Glastonbury is next week – you probably know which bands you’re seeing, but what are you wearing? The two things we can count on is great music and unpredictable weather. So the challenge is to look great and stay dry.

Beyond Retro has some super cute ponchos for £3. They’re quite light and pack up quite small, and of course you can’t beat the price.

I really hate it when my feet get soaked so I’m partial to wellies. I love them with long socks, and they look great with shorts and dresses of all lengths. I’m a huge fan of the playsuit but it’s not the easiest of outfits to get off in a port-a loo. You have to be practical – not all of us are flying in on a helicopter but we can try to look like we did!

The Fulton Birdcage Domed Umbrella is perfect for festivals. (It’s only £15 from John Lewis). These umbrells are great because you get full coverage and you can’t poke people in eyes because of the dome shape!

Festival dress should be fun but It’s important to think about cleanliness. You might look fabulous but if you have BO and dirty hair it’s hopeless. Prada has made pigtails fashionable again and of course they’re perfect for a festival. There are also quite a few dry shampoos which can be quite useful if you don’t have the opportunity to shower as much as you usually would. Wear deoderant and take some antiseptic liquid hand soap and don’t hesitate to use it on your feet!
